Go ahead, I'll wait . . .
And I'm a black woman. Clearly I must be since I said it. But please, tell us all how Hitler was a socialist.

Well, what I said in my last post is what it was DESIGNED to be. The labels of "oligarchy" and "plutocracy" seem to fit better nowadays though, sadly.

I'm not big on trolling. Sorry not sorry.

If you guys can get your jollies poking fun at me, then have fun with it.

Constitutionally-Limited Representative Democratic Republic is a form of Polyarchy. That word is just a cop-out.

So you're saying that countries can present themselves as one form of government when in reality they are something entirely different? Hmm, I wonder if that applies to anything that we've been discussing recently.

Have you heard about how Bob the Builder is doing right now? He recently signed a long term contract with Wells Fargo and he's making bank now.

I rec Robert A Dahl's "Polyarchy" which is required reading on the subject

though it's genuine political theory and not armchair bunk so it's not easy to read like a Forbes article
I'll see if I can find it. Thank you for the recommendation :beer:
